Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 - painting the cast in logo

Any tricks? Do these come with a stencil or something? I've seen people paint them...just wondering if it's as time-consuming as laying down paint in each of the letters or if there's a stencil for them to mask them off and spray.

Try giving team dynamics a call and see if they'll send you stickers from the pro race 1's. The individual letters might fit in the cast.

Well, at the machine shop I work at, we use a paint stick for engraved parts that need the letterings to stand out. It really looks and feels like a big crayon actually. Just rub it over the recessed area till it builds up and wipe away the excess. Not sure how it'd hold up outdoors though. You could just try taking all the wheels off, masking the area around the lettering and just drop paint in the letters. Wipe off the excess from the rim and let the paint dry.
